Comment Try a Google search - for any terms. The results will not be limited to CC-BY licensed works. Google does not require blanket commercial rights to index and link. Google indexes a wide variety of works, in many countries, with many different terms and conditions - even All Rights Reserved. My CC-BY-NC-SA licensed blog is hosted and indexed by Google. Ads do not appear on my blog, but this is because Google offers me the option of turning on or leaving off Adsense. best, Heather Morrison, PhD The Imaginary Journal of Poetic Economics http://poeticeconomics.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ GOAL mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.ecs.soton.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/goal
